Terrible hotel! Don’t stay here! There’s roaches, the toilet didn’t work walking into room. While we were sleeping, someone from the staff came in our room, realized it was the wrong one and left out. Family tried to pick us up to go to a wedding, they wouldn’t let the uber in to pick us up, they wanted us to take a taxi to meet the uber to the gate.

Las habitaciones estan descuidadas, la plancha no servía, no tenia taza para la cafetera, las lamparas no encendían, los enchufes no funcionaban, el teléfono no funcionaba. Esta despintadas las habitaciones. Los restauranes siempre estaban llenos, no hay para hacer reserva. No habia transporte para moverse a ningun lugar, estan muy lejos como el parque acuático y caminar con niños esta muy fuerte. Normalmente tienen carritos para mover a los guest. No rellenaban los cafés. El televisor programación pobre. Se que pensaran que es el más económico pero deben de tener todo apto para que el guest regresé. Solo habia líquido, jabon de manos y un jabon que era para pelo y cuerpo, tampoco habia eso en el cuarto.

Let’s start with the staff, majority were nice especially Juan Nunez, also there was a young lady who checked me in who was very pleasant (I forgot her name). Outside of that some were dismissive. We were ignored many times at the bar. Room: the room was not up to par as In appearance. It was clean, however, the outlet were broken, and some of the outlets didn’t work. The WiFi to watch TV does work and you cannot log into your own Netflix because there is no WiFi for the TV. Linens: when the staff wash the linens, they smell as if they were left overnight with the washing covered up and they put it in the dryer the next day, so it smells moldy. Food: the breakfast was ok, lunch seems ok. We never ate dinner at the resort, we went out to have dinner each night. Overall, the resort itself is nice; however, the rooms are very dated. They need to update the rooms and the outlets before they have a fire. I noticed one of the outlets in room 5112 when you plug anything in, there is a little flash. It’s beautiful resort they need to just update the rooms.
